how the fuck do you argue against utilitarianism? how can you possibly think you are a better person because you have nicer thoughts or feelings, when there are people who actually help others, though they may not be as spiritually deep? How can you think that the only purpose of life is your own happiness, or sense of fulfillment, and not to effect change in the world? did you not live a greater, more significant life by effecting real change in the world, or is it really better just to be a humbe, good dude? why do you think your subjective feelings matter so fucking much?
